I Wish I was Rich So Could Lose Money in Apple

I love my Apple iPod touch. So I'm pretty sure the new app store will
bring many new reasons to buy one. And then there is the 3G iPhone.
How could that go wrong?

But here is my problem. Apple makes most of its money from computers.
Acer computers can now be had for $300 at Walmart. These computers
aren't self cumbusting, they are quite good. How do you justify paying
a 1000 dollars more? Granted, some will... But most won't.

Apple is leveraging its Mac software to make better phones (Nokia and
others buy from third parties), but if the market for computers
implodes, the company will take a major hit. Then Apple will have pay
all those software people from phone revenu.

Better Mouse Trap.

Remember Word Perfect? Netscape? Altavista? Software is relatively
easy to dislsaudge.

Then there is the distinct possibility someone will come up with a
better cell phone...
